Did Jews Fight Back Against the Nazis?

- By the 1930’s, Jewish life had existed in Europe for over 2,000 years. Despite facing expulsion, persecution, and antisemitic rhetoric, Jews survived, sometimes through bribery for security or relocation to “safer” parts of Europe.
While this survival tactic served them for centuries, the Nazis rise to power was swift and calculated. Though historians who study this time period can theorize about where and how the tragic death of six million Jews could have occurred, hindsight is 20/20.
What the Jews of Europe endured was beyond their control. The reality is that there was nowhere to go, and escape was nearly impossible. With surrounding countries and borders closed to Jews, the pre-World War II European Jewish community of approximately nine million had only a tiny number of survivors to carry on Jewish tradition and continuity into the next generation.

About Explainers: From ancient Jewish traditions to the modern State of Israel, we explain it all. Diving into anything and everything related to Jewish culture, history, and even religion.
Understand Jewish holidays, Israeli politics, Jewish diasporic communities, and more. Learn about Judaism in pop culture, debunking myths about Jews, and explore obscure Israeli landmarks. We’re asking questions as basic as “What is the Talmud?”, and as obscure as “How did hip-hop boost Kosher wine sales?”, and everything in between.
About Unpacked: We provide nuanced insights by unpacking all things Jewish. People are complex and complicated - yet we’re constantly being pushed to oversimplify our world. At Unpacked we know that being complex makes us more interesting. Because of this, we break the world down with nuance and insight to drive your curiosity and challenge your thinking.

The Holocaust🇮🇱 happened because of the Arabs🇸🇦💘☠ without a doubt any question...
This is mindblowing. She tells a very exciting, incredibly touching story with great emotion, could not stop listening over and over again. A big thank you to everyone who contributed here.
The 2 architects of the Holocaust were Jews, and Hitler had 136k in his army, loyal National Jews quelling Bolshevist communism. It is beautiful.
When you really think about it, the holocaust was also a hidden transfer of wealth
That part about the community in the forest made me tear up. In the darkest of times our people still tried to bring in as much light as possible
My fathers brother who was a doctor in Poland and his 2 daughters were murdered by the Nazi's. His wife escaped since she did not look Jewish, and lived in Manhattan prior to her death. She had to be very sad knowing her husband and 2 daughters did not make it out.
May their memory be for a blessing
The Holocaust is a great example of when your enemy is pushing for the destruction of another.
The option of surrendering to that opponent should never happen.
This mindset of course should only be adopted in times of war.
Since a wa r hasn't been declared in decades that stipulation is kinda short sighted.
My grandfather fought back and his brothers fought in the Polish resistance...and unfortunately, as he witnessed, many Jews did not put up a fight but many like himself and his brothers did!
My grandfather joined the polish partisans and ended up escaping to Siberia and then later fought with Russians on front lines against the nazi’s his two brother my uncles survived the concentration camp his father mother 6 sisters killed right away obviously he survived he was different he fought
The amount of stories he told you
@@cchampaine179 were they gassed lol 😀😂
May be your garmps just lied
I always wondered this why didnt they fight back defend them selve run away ect. Was it a hope that this will stop or it wont happen to me and mine? The history we learn is that very few stood up and fought fire with fire we know more of the french resistance than we do the jewish which is very sad! Do the jewish community not believe in violence even at the cost of there own lives?
I used to ask my mother why they didn’t run. She said there was nowhere to go. Even our president Roosevelt was a Jew hater
There were three places that I know of that took in Jewish refugees during the Nazi ear. Israel, Shanghai, China, and the Dominican Republic, which shares the Island of Hispaniola with Haiti.
None of those places were near EUROPE, ND NONE OF THEM WERE EASY FOR THEM were easy for the European. Jews to get to at the time. But still, some made it. The story of the Jewish community of Shanghai, China, during the war years, deserves it’s own story.
They didn't need to run, that's where they went wrong at. At the time Germany was fighting a war, if they would've overthrown the camps and took over the weapons and Resorces, they could've gone anywhere they please and set up a safe haven for other camps and even help overthrown other camps. Hitler was not about to send the number of troops back to put them back into the concentration camps. He had bigger fishes to fry at the time, what he did in those camps was because they allowed him to do it. He couldn't go to war with over 6 million people trying to live and fight against the other countries, he had to pick one.
@@milascave2 How many Jews fled there? Maybe 20, don't know how important this story is
That's why we appreciate Eisenhower.
From India 's side when India was under British Colonisation, there was one Jew guy who fought Nazis in WW2. Then he became Governer of Punjab state of India.
Part of the myth-making was by the early Israelis. It was part of them saying “we’re not the same old Yids you’re used to. You aren’t going to push us around the way you pushed them around.”
The Jews are the smartest nation in every way. That's why they are hated. They are the greatest survivors, what nation after being scattered for 2,000yrs could RETURN to their original homeland and speak even their own language.
@@margaretconnors5879 not sure what you mean, ancient Hebrew is a lost language..
And no group has the monopoly on smarts, you're making jews look bad.
Many actually were partisans
@@margaretconnors5879 it’s that type of language that creates conflict for Jews. Could you explain the difference between orthodox and Zionist Jews please
@@jonjeskie5234 Ancient Hebrew was never lost. It died as a spoken language, but Hebrew was preserved as a literary and religious language. Modern Hebrew is very much derivative of its Ancient ancestor, but with overhauls and additions to adapt it to the modern world as it had not be used widely as a spoken language for over 2000 years.
Firstly, it was nowhere Jews could went. Secondly, many Jews thought that it was "the same" Germans as in WW1. Thirdly, many European governments and the US knew that happened during the Holocaust, but were so indifferent. Neighbors of Jews often hated them or supported Nazi ideology or don't want to risk their lifes.
To my mind, it's logical that after this huge genocide Jews need to have own country. Just litterelly to survive. If Jews gave up most part of Mizrahi Jews would be killed and it would be nowhere safety to other Jews e.x from the ussr
Litterally so didnt bosniaks in yugoslav wars
But who gave them to take a muslim arab land. I swear to God when day they will leave that land by force
Arabs colonized Levant in the 7 century. Until 1 century it was Judea with Jews exectly. In the 1 AC Roman empire destroyed Judea and The Temple. Roman renamed province to Syria Palestina, they wanted to erased memory of the Jewish country and nation.
Before Arabs conquest it had never been an Arabic land, region etc.
It's important to understand that Jews and Palestinian Arabs live in the region. No one will dissappear. They need try to live together, because other decision is genocide. Each side did massacred. They are both not innocent, but without peace more people will suffer. Hate doesn't help to find any solution
@@poorindiansanddogsarenotal1276 you name checks out xenophobic racist.
Not with God on their side, He brought them home and they r here to stay. You are a very brave man to challenge The God Of Israel 🇮🇱
I’m not Jewish, just a recovering Catholic, but I love this channel and I’ve been learning a great deal about Jewish history and culture. Thank you for your videos, their value is immense.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: every survivor is a triumph over the Nazi scum. Very inspiring video ~ thank you!! :)
Thank you for this, as a Jew I have always felt a sense of shame at the lack of the resistance my fellow Jews showed against the Barbarian nazis, it has pained me for over 50 years of my life. Only when watching this have I been able to begin to understand. Once again can’t thank you enough once again.
Thank you!
@@chuckyoneill9029listen jews were so dumb that they believed British that they originates from palistine and britishers came from heaven this the root cause that made germans population angry because jews were so rich that time they fell in british trap thus any religion is good to practice and desire unleass it doesnt take someone life

@@mikhailabunidal9146 our brothers and sisters
The Bielski community was only 12,000 vs 6,000,000 killed. That was just a tiny glimmer in an ocean of death. The overwhelming majority did go like sheep to slaughter. My grandparents were there, they witnessed it. We have to learn from it and say Never Again. Never Again will we go like sheep. We will fight like hell, we know what'll happen if we don't.
They were by no means the only partisans
@@ronmaximilian6953
In former USSR were Jews in military and partisan. *Mostly* in Europe they didn't put up a fight. Some minority European Jews did, but minority. Lots of them been fooled (lied to) by nazis
@@Manowar68 Jews in Europe were largely disarmed and unable to defend themselves. But they certainly did resist wherever and whenever possible. Problem of Jewish community leaders falling for lies and fear of reprisal certainly did limit the ability of many Jews to fight back, especially in ghettos. But there were resistance movements in 1943 in many ghettos as it became clear that the Nazis meant to exterminate Jews. And there were Jewish partisans in many areas aside from the former Soviet Union. There were Jewish partisans in Poland, my father and his family included. There were Jewish partisans in the Balkans, including Yugoslavia and Greece. There were Jewish partisans in Italy and France. Resistance included both trying to save as many Jews as possible and revenge on Nazis and their collaborators.
Beautifully spoken. I'm no Jew but hopefully I shall once visit your holy land and see that what you fought for. You earned every bit of it and continue to fight for your own safety while contributing to the progress of humanity as a whole. Perhaps one day I shall be able to visit and see that beauty to let it inspire me further. Meanwhile keep up the good work and stay safe and strong.

Thank you!!
@@UNPACKEDcan you please make a video on 4 remarkable stories of survival in the Holocaust. Here are these 4 remarkable stories that you should put in the video.
1. Rudolph Reder who was one of the very few survivors of the Belzec killing center.
2. Tovi Blatt who was one of only 58 survivors of the Sobibor killing center.
3. Janikel Wiernik who was one of only 70 survivors of the Treblinka killing center.
4. Simon Serbnik who was one of the very few survivors of the Chelmo killing center.
this brought tears to my eyes. I feel exactly with what was described in this video. the Holocaust was awful but as my mentor from the Kach movement said "never again" and hopefully we learn from our horrible past in the diaspora.
Your diaspora is holocausting the Palestinian people right now
A holocaust is now being perpetrated in their name
Never again for Jews or for everyone? Your people are committing genocide as we speak, have you said any words against the Israeli regime?
This video was so moving and well-done! You can hear the pain and pride in the narrators voice. Much respect to the Jewish people for remaining steadfast!
The issue of military actions, apart from the Ghetto Uprising, showed more a tendency to betrayal and collaboration for the enemy than steadfastness Regarding the Uprising, the material is also distorted, as it points to a minor organization as the leaders of this uprising
Wow. This gave me goosebumps. I just finished reading the girl who escaped Auschwitz about Mala Zimetbaum.
Gave me chills.
Never Forget, Never Again, and Never stop fighting anti-Semitism.
Good behavior invites less hatred.
@@goldwhitedragon I think the Jews do a lot of good things
We have created the face recognition feature on your phone, advancements in medicine, advancements in curing cancer, conserving water, ect.
Spectacular video. When going to the holocaust museum in Israel the most emotional part for me was near the middle where it focuses on Jewish resistance. Just normal people who had nothing but fought with everything they had. Reading the journals of young men and women being able to read their words was a tremendous experience. Proud to be Jewish❤
Thank you for this video. It left me with a sense of pride for having part of that courage and strength in my blood coming from my ancestors.
Well done and presented!
Thanks for this video. This was very personal to me. My family were almost all Holocaust survivors, with my mother, aunt, uncle, and stepfather all from the same town in Poland and all having survived Auschwitz. They are all gone now. My aunt the last to pass away last February at 95. You told this part of the story so incredibly well. So moving. I literally was crying by the end. I actively avoid wallowing in the feeling of victimhood for what my few family members endured. Many years ago I realized how lucky I am even to have been born at all since Hitler tried his damnedest to murder my mother. But even though she and the rest of the survivor generation in my family is gone now, I see Israel as the future for carrying on the resilience and creativity of the Jewish people. I did not have children of my own. But when I recently spent time in Israel and met so many wonderful young Jews there, I feel very much that you are all my spiritual children. I really love what you are doing with these beautiful videos.
Well the good news is there are more people who are more respectful to jews. 😇
how do you survive a death camp?
@@Robert.Smith6969 Is this a serious question?
I’m so glad Hitler spent his last days on earth whining, paranoid, terrified and desperate as he saw how his evil empire collapsed to pieces as it was being utterly crushed by the allies. He didn’t get away with it! God bless you and your family.

The answer is yes... they went quitely ...otherwise the number would not have been that astronomical... it hurts, this explains partially why some of the jews are doing the same thing to poor Palestinians... their anger is directed towards Palestinians and their anger towards germans comes out in the form of the the million films that hollywood made about what happened and the 10 million other films that will be made in the future .
@@Summitic we're not doing anything to Palestinians mate. They're trying and sometimes succeeding to kill innocent civilians. We're doing what we can to stop them. We're not touching innocents even though that's what they're trying to tell the world. Don't believe what you see unless you saw it from both sides' perspective. What the Nazis have done was inhumane. We won't do it to others it's against an important rule of Judaism: "what you hate being done to you do not do to your friend"

Now they stole Palestine
Thank you gentile
@@sillybilly346 my grandpa was in the Waffen SS, he was a kind man, he even gave kids chocolate.
Germany didn’t start WW2.
If the Jews didn’t want persecution then why didn’t they negotiate a settlement with Hitler? Why did they start a war if the Jews weren’t willing to pay the price of war? Makes no sense?
Yh they have a safe haven from doing everything that happened to them to another people. Hypocrisy at its finest.
Let's not forget what is happening today in the mistreatment of the Palestinians.

My great grandfather was definetly one who fought back. Got taken by the Gestapo when he was an active partisan, had his teeth and nails pulled, and did not give up a single name. His silence in the face of torture payed off and he was liberated not too long after his capture. Belgium was a rough place back then.
I am so sorry Zac. Can you imagine such a thing. I hope he passed out so that he wouldn't have to bare the pain.

I'm surprised that the story of Brundibar was not presented in this video.
So we'll done. So sad, yet hopeful. Brought a tear to the eye that dripped into the wellspring of the heart.
Great to hear there were more unsung heroes than history reveals. We know there was a French Resistance and now I’m grateful to know that there were many Jews that fought back in their own way. Probably more than history will ever reveal. I’ve read a lot of history about WW 2 but am still just scratching the surface. I hope more stories come out about people resisting and doing what they can to thwart evil. Awesome job on bringing some of these things to light. God’s Chosen people have been persecuted for several thousand years but somehow still manage to survive and prosper even against tremendous odds. Much respect to the Jews and the Israeli Defense Force. I’m former military and say kudos and a salute to the IDF,and to all to “Keep the Faith!”
Another thing one must know is about the partition of India where millions of Bengali Hindus were displaced and massacred in riots...
Phenomenal presentation. Thank you so much.
If you look into it, it was the Jews who began to boycott the Germans in 1933. Im not sure why that’s the case but if anyone knows I’d appreciate learning more about it
So beautiful! Well Said! Thank you!

Unpacked, you nailed it.
@unpacked -- thank you for this great video.
please include at the beginning of this video that there is explicit images and footage. Although it is not at all the focus of the video and the majority of it of it is incredible historical footage and the narrator is amazing -- in the video there is (1) an image of a decomposing corpse at 4:28, (2) a person being shot dead 5:05
I'm suggesting this because kids and teens will be consuming this material. It is important to educate without traumatizing, to inform without scaring or scarring. Some schools, for example, have a policy for holocaust teachin to only show people while they were alive, not while dead. Something to consider for Unpacked.
Sorry but I disagree with this. Sometimes the truth is painful. These things did happen and should not be sugarcoated.
I disagree, look at how wrapped in cottonwool todays society is, reality is more important in teaching than ideals
Victim blaming is rampant. Not just in regards to Jews and the Holocaust. For any injustice that takes place, it's easy to find a group of people that somehow make it sound like the victims were "asking for it".
There were actually some Jews in the Nazi army, navy, air force, etc as Nazi Jews or Hitler's Jewish soldiers as Mischlings half Jews. They were actually given German blood certificate by Adolf Hitler himself. Then there's actually Ustachi fascist Croatians of devout Catholics who was actually far worse than the Hitler's dreaded SS. They actually murder 750,000 Orthodox Serbs, Croatians who were actually anti fascism, 60,000 Yugoslavian Jews, and 26,000 gypsies. There sheer brutality and horrors actually sickened the Germans and Italians in Yugoslavia. Then again you actually had certain partisans who were actually Jews who fought against the Germans and their own foreign collaborators. To the Nazis anyone who practiced Judaism but yet weren't Jews like Karaimes in Crimea were actually spared. Hitler himself actually spared the life of a family Jewish doctor who helped out his dying mother of breast cancer as he was actually the leader of Nazi Germany regime.
These were Christians with one Jewish great-grandparent, or Christians with one Jewish grandparent. In other words, not Jewish. The ones who had a Jewish father, were also not Jewish.
Love your answers.
This is beautiful. Thank you for making me know this history in another preceptive.
Thank you, beautifully explained
That is great. Every child is a hope. A resistance to genocide.

Let's not forget the 5 million non Jews who died in the Holocaust as well .
Really fucking weird take away
Yep!
That is rightJamuna, but this is only dealing with the Jews. It must have been a nightmare to try and live through. GOD SAYS THAT THERE IS NOTHING BUT EVIL IN MANS HEART CONTINUOUSLY. IT IS DESPARATLY WICKED .SORRY THATS NOT THE CORRECT WAY OF SAYING IT BUT ITS TRUE ANYWAY. MAN WANTS HIS OWN WAY ALL THE TIME NOT GODS WAY. GOD IS GOOD. That's why we needed to be saved . What happened was all for nothing, like all wars, mothers loose their children, husbands aunt uncles ,neighbours. It's ugly
@@margaretconnors5879 and I am mentioning the 5 million non Jews who were also killed. Because it's not just about Jews.
Died but not hunted down by a gov't. out to exterminate only Jews specifically and exclusively.
This site is fascinating.
I would like to know more about King David being a warrior please...
Why do you think God didn't want King David to build the Temple, it was because he was a man of blood, war. The women used to sing, Saul killed his 1,000s but David killed 10,000. He led his army allways untill he got too old. He sure was a hero He also was a man after Gods own heart. Go and look up the life of the Great KING DAVID in the Tenak or the scriptures where is is spoken about continuously. The Messiah will sit on Davids Throne in the coming kingdom age. SOON
That is Biblical text, not history, There is an independent verification of a King of Israel named David in the ancient world, but that's about it. In the Bible he was one hell of a warrior, and also, a very flawed person.
Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🏆 עם ישראל חי 🏆🪬🎉
Powerful. But always remember that it was overwhelming violence that stopped the nazis, not cultural practice.
Keep in mind also that there was never retribution for killing nazis; they were going to kill all of the Jews anyway.
But for overwhelming violence in their defense, Jews wouldn't have survived. Resistance through practice would have been wiped out without resistance through violence.
Am Israel must learn to live like eretz Israel, and quickly. We can't count on others to come to our aid.
Thats right,but you have an awesome great living God Adonai Tzvaot Lord of ( heavens ) Armies.Lord of Hosts on your side. Call to him
There story is Amazing thank you for Sharing.
Unfortunately the Jewish population of Europe had nowhere to flee to with the onset of Nazism. Except 2 places on our planet. The Dominican Republic and Shanghai, China. 20,000 fled to the latter between 1933 to 1941. These people were welcomed by the Chinese and could live in peace opening schools & stores. Shanghai already had an established community of Jews originally from Russia and a synagogue (Ohel Moshe). Then it all came tumbling down when the Japanese took Shanghai. The Jewish people were moved into a Ghetto in the Tilanqiao district. Jews weren't the main target of the invaders, 14 million Chinese were killed. Almost all Jews survived in the 'Miracle of Shanghai'. I've been to the Ghetto and a lovely Chinese man showed me inside his house there. On the site of the old Ohel Moshe synagogue there's an excellent Jewish museum. Yes everything isn't on any tourist map but I recommend anyone visiting Shanghai to seek these sites out. Maybe stay at the beautiful Peace Hotel on the Bund, near Nanjing road. The hotel was built by Iraqi jew emigre Sir Victor Sassoon and opened in 1929. It would be great if you made a video of these events
Thank you so much ❤🌹
A heart touching film. ❤😢.
There's actually a book and a DVD video on Mischlings at the library
That was an amazing video. I'm speechless
The Nazis “produced many euphemisms to cloak their” cruelties/intentions. So well said. May your honesty be blessed and you as well. ❤️🌹Courageously depicted! Apt for today also.
Wasn’t too long ago! 1943.
Many good Albanians-Albanian Muslims and some good Catholics helped save many lives -May Allah bless those who didn’t nod like Zombies.
In Quran, one is expected to protect human lives and their places of worship-including synagogues, churches, monasteries, etc.
Also, let us remember that good, practicing Jews are nothing like the bloodthirsty Nazis or Zionists. My best professors-the kindest-had been practicing Jews with love for all people, including Muslims.🌿
I don't remember ever hearing anyone in my presence ever saying that the Jews "went easy". I think my response would be "How did you learn that?" and hope it would start a dialog. I did learn a little bit about Jewish resistance in Hebrew school in the 1950's, but just a little. I understand the Hebrew school curriculums have improved. 😀👍🕍🔯
Actually here in Israel the generation that born after the Holocaust (around 1950-1960) ask that a lot...
Well I hope they are toldthe truth, please don't hide it from your youth. A lot of grandparents were killed by the nazi' so for all those who were shot, starved beaten, hung, you name it.

IT WAS HIM THAT PUT THE LOVE FOR GOD AND THE JEWISH PEOPLE IN MY HEART ♥. I AM ENGLISH. DAD WAS IN ( WHAT WAS CALLED THEN, PALESTINE ) HE WAS THERE TO SEE ALEMBY WALK THROUGH THE GATES IN JERUSHALEM, IN FACT HE TURNES 21 THAT VERY DAY.

So he was a strong man and he saw a lot in his life time. He loved the Jewsi am 76 and love you Jews too. 🙏🏻
I never went to Hebrew school. Well, no longer than a day. But I have heard that cliché a lot.
The Germans were immaculate record keepers, so we know almost everything about their crimes and slaughter, including the precise numbers. But the pushback and resistance? First, if they knew about it, they immensely moved to crush it, and second, when it succeeded, they probably did not want people to know about it. So there are no records. Only the memories and writings of those who participated in that resistance and then survived to tell the tale.
To be fair, there is also an idea that ALL the gential Germans welcomed the Nazis in and were fine with the Holocaust if they knew about it. This, too, is not true. There was a lot of resistance against Hitler among the German Gentiles, too, That is one of the reasons that there was only one camp in Germany, and the rest were in occupied Poland. But there was also resistance in Poland, and IN PRETTY MUCH EVERY place that they occupied.
Some Jewish activists should watch this...
Of course not. Taxes from other countries didnt fund them.
I realize that this story is about Jewish resistance during the Shoah but you are talking like all Jews were murdered by Nazis. Many Jews in places like Lithuania, Latvia and the Ukraine were murdered by their neighbors.
Lots of talk about the Nazis and their collaborators but even polish partisans that were fighting the Nazis managed to murder Jews along the way.
That's history that deserves to be remembered.
Sobibor. Warsaw. The Bielskis. Wherever Jews could find even minimal means of resistance, they fought back.
Bribery is only possible if you have the mean for bribery. Running is only possible if those people that you love and want to take with you won't go for whatever reason.
Jews have lots of money to bribe with tho
They could just ask the rothchilds for some for bribing
@@punishedgloyperstormtroope8098 you really think everybody can ask anyone for money and they would agree? the rothchilds aren't even jewish by faith anymore.
Young ones they did not want to leave their moms and dads and grandparents because they felt duty to care for them. At least it was like that in Warsaw Ghetto.
What a wonderful story! Resistance takes all forms. I'm glad that Jews finally have a state of their own
עם ישראל חי
I couldn't stop crying or watching. What a wonderful history we have as the worlds SAVIOURS! They are HOPELESS without US and OUR GOD! Am Israel chai!
Gods Blessings 💯🕊🌿
I am sorry but as a Soviet jew most went like sheep. “Resisting” by “defying” something. Resisting means fighting back physically and not spiritually. All the heroes you list are from 2,000 years ago. Out of 6,000,000 how many fought back? 6,000? Only Soviet jews mounted any kind of significant resistance via partisans. Of course, there were 500,000 jews in red army but that’s different. Warsaw ghetto uprising? That’s it… common now. Do you know why Soviet Jewish civilians fought back more than others? Because in atheism USSR you don’t rely on god, you rely on yourself. God defends those who defend themselves.
What evidence is there that Soviet Jews were atheist?
Sometimes you do need Gods help and I can say now that if I was faced with what those people were faced with I would cry out to God and I know this He would help. Never doubt God
Sorry, but plenty of other Jews fought back. Jews in the Soviet Union just had more time to fight back because they could join the Red Army
With most men gone to war, women holding children in one hand and old parents in the other had little chance to fight. But don’t forget million of soviet soldiers giving in to Germans near Kiev.
I like each and every detail that connected to Jews...my heart throbbed to the narration...Love You Israel...God bless you...
Beautiful! Inspiring!
And what abuot frenkel from "azi" of beitar?
